Description

Gluon fusion is the main production mechanism for Higgs bosons with masses up to several hundred GeV in pp collisions at LHC and SSC. We present the QCD corrections to the fusion cross section for arbitrary Higgs and top mass values: gg → H(g), gq → Hq and qanti q → Hg. The QCD corrections are positive and they increase the cross section σ(pp → H) by about a factor 1.5 to 1.7. The analysis applies to the production of Higgs particles in the Standard Model and also to the production of the CP-even Higgs particles in extensions of the Higgs sector as required for example by supersymmetric theories.
